Cross-Modal Plasticity during Self-Motion Perception [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2023 To maintain stable and coherent perception in an ever-changing environment, the brain needs to continuously and dynamically calibrate information from multiple sensory sources, using sensory and non-sensory information in a flexible manner.

Temporal and spatial properties of vestibular signals for perception of self-motion [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 It is well recognized that the vestibular system is involved in numerous important cognitive functions, including self-motion perception, spatial orientation, locomotion, and vector-based navigation, in addition to basic reflexes, such as oculomotor or ...

Hexapods with Plane-Symmetric Self-Motions [PDF]
Robotics, 2018 A hexapod is a parallel manipulator where the platform is linked with the base by six legs, which are anchored via spherical joints. In general, such a mechanical device is rigid for fixed leg lengths, but, under particular conditions, it can perform a ...

Robust vestibular self-motion signals in macaque posterior cingulate region
eLife, 2021 Self-motion signals, distributed ubiquitously across parietal-temporal lobes, propagate to limbic hippocampal system for vector-based navigation via hubs including posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and retrosplenial cortex (RSC). Although numerous studies

Self-motion perception in the elderly [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Self-motion through space generates a visual pattern called optic flow. It can be used to determine one's direction of self-motion (heading). Previous studies have already shown that this perceptual ability, which is of critical importance during everyday life, changes with age.

The accuracy of object motion perception during locomotion
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 Human observers are capable of perceiving the motion of moving objects relative to the stationary world, even while undergoing self-motion. Perceiving world-relative object motion is complicated because the local optical motion of objects is influenced ...

The perception of linear self-motion [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 2005 VR lends itself to the study of intersensory calibration in self-motion perception. However, proper calibration of visual and locomotor self-motion in VR is made complicated by the compression of perceived distance and by unfamiliar modes of locomotion.

Vestibular System and Self-Motion [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Detection of the state of self-motion, such as the instantaneous heading direction, the traveled trajectory and traveled distance or time, is critical for efficient spatial navigation. Numerous psychophysical studies have indicated that the vestibular system, originating from the otolith and semicircular canals in our inner ears, provides robust ...

Neural variability determines coding strategies for natural self-motion in macaque monkeys
eLife, 2020 We have previously reported that central neurons mediating vestibulo-spinal reflexes and self-motion perception optimally encode natural self-motion (Mitchell et al., 2018).
